Having been an avid follower of track events for years, I've always been in awe of the speed, grace, and beauty that female runners exhibit. It's no surprise that some of the world's sexiest athletes are these incredible women.
So, what secrets lie behind the speed and stamina of the world's most captivating female runners?
As we prepare to reveal the stories of these extraordinary athletes, reflect on what sets them apart not only on the track, but also in life.
When you think about the hottest female track athletes, can't you help but wonder, what makes them run.
Top 10 Sexiest Female Runners
10. Emma Coburn
I remember watching Coburn's race; the energy was palpable. She specializes in the 3000-meter steeplechase and is the first-ever American woman to win gold at the 2017 World Championship in London.
In the year before that, she also won a bronze medal at the 2016 Olympic Games and was the only woman to do so.
The secret behind her success and beauty is a carb-heavy diet, which is needed as she runs 80 miles a week.
Protein is a major priority for Coburn, and despite what health nuts may tell you, Coburn is living proof that apparently, you don’t need to count calories to become one of the hottest female athletes in the world.

9. Tirunesh Dibaba
Tirunesh is an Ethiopian athlete who has won the world cross-country sport championship three times.
She is also the first to win the 5000/10,000m double at the World Championships and hold three gold medals.
The secret behind Dibaba’s stamina comes down to light training. She jogs for just over an hour and runs at a brisk pace twice per week. The cute baby-face also does not lift weights nor run for more than 80 minutes per session.
Compared to some of the hottest female athletes in the world that are more brash, Tiru is more reserved in her demeanor, which is attractive in its own way. Tirunesh is often referred to as the "Queen of Long Distance," having dominated both 5000m and 10000m races for over a decade, a testament to her endurance and consistency.

8. Allyson Felix
I've been following Allyson's career since her early days. Allyson is a U.S. track athlete whose fortes are short distances and racking up gold medals. Allyson is one of the most decorated female Olympians, with eleven Olympic medals under her belt.
She is also the only woman in the world who has won an Olympic gold medal seven times and counting.
Despite being featured in Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential Persons of 2020 list as one of the world’s hottest female athletes, she hasn’t let her success get to her head.
Allyson prioritizes her family, which consists of her husband Kenneth Ferguson and a three-year-old daughter.

7. Georgeanne Moline
Georgeanne Moline is one of the world’s hottest athletes and track and field marathoners.
Moline finished fifth in the 2012 London Olympic Games but missed the Rio 2016 games due to a back injury.
Since she is one of the world’s sexiest athletes, her fans always find a breathtaking thrill in watching the beauty participate in the 400-meter hurdles as her gentle yet firm muscles stretch themselves on the track toward the finish line.
6. Christina Vukicevic Demidov
Amongst the hottest female athletes in the world, Christina is considered to possess a perfect body and is also a seven-time 100-meter hurdles Norway champion.
In 2003, she was one of the few female athletes who won a gold medal at the European Youth Olympic Games/Festival. In 2004, she finished fifth at the World Junior Championship, but she tremendously improved her performance over the following year, where she came second.
In 2010, the sports star went on to win a bronze medal at the European Championship.
Unlike many beautiful athletes and because of her strong family values, Christina looked beyond the allure of bronze medals to marry the world’s celebrated footballer, Vadim Demidov, and left sports in 2016.
5. Ivet Lalova-Collio
Lalova-Collio is a Bulgarian track and field athlete. She is a contender in 100-meter and 200-meter sprints for which she has competed in 4 Olympic Games.
Ivet has contested in high-level competitions and emerged a champion.
In 2005, Ivet participated in a 200-meter race and won the women’s European Indoor Championships. She is also one of the few hottest female athletes who won gold at the 2012 European Athletics Championships.
Even though Ivet has yet to win an Olympic medal, she is ranked twelfth in the top fastest female athletes in the 100-meter dash. Ivet is a testament to perseverance. After a severe injury in 2005 that could have ended her career, she made a comeback and continued to compete at the highest level.
